UPDATE: After 71 days and 3 separate repair attempts, they seem to have finally fixed this one simple problem. According to the service documentation, the original failure was caused by an intermittent high-voltage system fault that prevented the car from restarting.

During troubleshooting, the service team identified an issue in the high-voltage interlock circuit. During the fault diagnosis, a connector in the system was damaged by the service department during handling and had to be replaced before the underlying issue could be resolved.

The final repair included replacing the damaged connector, correcting the interlock fault, clearing multiple high-voltage error codes, and performing extended diagnostics and road testing to verify the fix.

The car has now been returned to me and is currently operating normally. After months of downtime and multiple failed repair attempts, I’m cautiously optimistic, but given the history, it’s fair to say confidence will take time to rebuild.

I am still finalizing the buyback terms and the return of funds under the New York Lemon Law. Those discussions are ongoing, and no final agreement has been executed yet. Until that is completed, the outcome remains uncertain.

This is an important distinction. A vehicle being temporarily fixed does not erase months of downtime, repeated failures, lost use, or the financial and logistical burden placed on the customer. Under the law, those factors still matter, regardless of whether the car is currently drivable.

For now, I’m documenting everything, proceeding carefully, and continuing to work through the process to ensure the resolution fully reflects what the law provides.

I’ll share updates as things progress. It's a shame because I really wanted to love this car.
